THERAPY IN HUDDERSFIELD
Come home to your most true and authentic self.
This place is for you. Sessions available in-person and online across the UK and Europe.
Serving expats, LGBTQ+ folks, and women navigating relationships, life changes, identity, and belonging.
Everyone thinks you're doing great. No one sees how hard you're working to hold it together.
You smile, but only to cover up the exhaustion of constantly bending to others’ needs. At this point, it’s hard to know where you stop and others begin. Maybe there’s been heartbreak, or your relationships have changed in ways you didn’t expect. On top of being hurt, you’re tired, unsure what you even want next—only knowing that this version of your life isn’t it.
Living abroad might feel more isolating than you expected. These exciting new adventures can bring on a level of self-reflection you may not have been prepared for. And if you’ve always felt like the outsider—queer, questioning, or just “different”—it could be starting to catch up with you in ways you just can’t ignore anymore.
This is an invitation to step into a new way of being.
Hi, I’m Michelle.
Sometimes what we need most is someone who sees the truth of what we’re carrying and reminds us we have options.
That’s what I’m here to offer to you. I’m not afraid of the big stuff—rage, grief, trauma, identity shifts. There is room for everything here.
Therapy is where we can finally put words to what’s felt impossible to name. We’ll work to understand the patterns of your life, soften the shame you may feel, and reconnect with the parts of yourself you’ve had to hide.
As a queer American expat, a parent, and someone who's had to navigate rupture and reinvention in my own life, I bring not just training but lived experience to this work. You don’t have to shrink or explain yourself. I’m someone who can sit with it all, hold silence when that’s needed, and offer direction when you're ready.

Expats
Even when it’s something you chose, living abroad can be disorienting. I can help you make sense of the loneliness, personal shifts, and cultural disconnects that come with expat life—especially when it all feels harder than it “should.”
Relationships
Breakups, miscommunication, resentment, questions about identity and attraction, or distance—relationships can bring up so much. If you’re ending something, rebuilding trust, or trying to feel more like yourself with a partner, therapy can help you get clearer on what you want and what’s no longer working.
LGBTQ+
You may not be coming to therapy to talk about your identity, but it matters to have a space where every part of you is understood. I work with LGBTQ+ clients navigating relationships, anxiety, grief, and sexual exploration—without having to explain or defend who they are.
